Referendum Threats to Employment Power Postwar Debate
The article argues the proposed referendum grants the Commonwealth government power to control employment and relocate workers, potentially overriding state laws and arbitration outcomes. It quotes claims from figures like J. V. Telson and KC Me Villeneuve Smith, warning that employers could be ordered to hire or dismiss workers, with relocation to distant locations possible, framing the issue as a national choice after the war.

Melbourne notes back to the country policy debate
The Acting Minister for decentralisation, Mr Lionhop, heads a committee to study moving workers from Melbourne to country areas as city war industries wind down. Cabinet will review a policy shift favoring country growth, with calls for more transport and amenities. Tasmanian hotel hours are cited as a model, prompting debate over extending Melbourne hotel trading hours and potential opposition from urban residents.

Thrifty Australians Support War Effort Through Savings
Postwar thrift in Australia grows with savings bank deposits and war bonds. Official data show Savings Bank deposits rose by £76,001,000 in the year to May 1943 and a further £110,000 in the War ended May 1944, reflecting continued public support despite restrictions. Government measures limit market instability while preserving the value of the Australian pound.

Direct appeal plan aims to boost dairy production
A plan endorsed by agricultural authorities proposes a direct appeal to dairy farmers to meet a defined production goal. The scheme, supervised by department officials, would compare annual actual output to the target and adjust allowances for adverse factors. It seeks close farmer contact to remove impediments and improve wartime transport and fuel issues while aligning with Commonwealth and State measures.
